Story of change from Italy: Manema, from Guinea Conakry

In my Country I was graduated in Law. Now I have to start again my life. Three times a week I used to go to school. Now I attend a cooking course where I learn Italian cuisine: especially Tuscan cuisine. I go to the vocational training five times a week from 9 am to 5.45 pm. We cook with the teachers and we do both practice and theory. The thing I like most is the practice! I like to understand how recipes are prepared, especially how to make bread, fresh pasta. I am also able to make a good pizza. At the training they thought me the “maths” of cooking: if you mess up an ingredient, everything will go wrong. I have to study more to learn how to make good cakes. In November I will begin an internship in a restaurant in town!
